Hi I am another thunderbirder from Barcelona. Mine is a 1600 with ABS blue with pearl white line.
I wanted to thank all the answers and that is the most comprehensive forum that is on our bike and has helped me solve many questions in Spanish is difficult or impossible to solve.
My English is better than Shakespeare but that of Google translator not
Maybe Shakespeare's English is better than mine

Only some made with smartphones but when you have some good photo's you can see here.
I always say I want to do it but when I ride a motorcycle I miss the photographs.

You speak Spanish? Every time I was in Barcelona my English was of more use than my Spanish. Don't you speak Catalan? You live in a beautiful city. It was one of my favorite places to visit in Europe.

Great choice of colour for the TBird and a great place to live. Was going to pop into Barcelona on my last trip but got interested in the Monestir de Montserrat instead.

I speak Spanish and Catalan. I have friends who have been in Miami and had difficulty understanding the Spanish from Spain when they spoke to Hispanics because it is as if they spoke English but using words in Spanish.

In Catalonia is tradition to go to the Monastery of Montserrat when you buy a car or motorbike. I still have to go.

I doubt they were speaking "Spanish from Spain" in Miami. They were undoubtedly speaking "Spanish" from Cuba, which is quite different. If they had been elsewhere, where the Spanish speakers were from Puerto Rico, it would have been different from either. Don't come to the Americas if you want Castellano. You certainly won't find it in North America! Although most of us here call anyone who says "si" Spanish.
